Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of INNO-406 in adult patients with imatinib-resistant or intolerant Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) leukemias.
This phase II trial is studying how well lenalidomide works in treating older patients with acute myeloid leukemia with abnormal chromosome 5q. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of belinostat when given together with azacitidine in treating patients with advanced hematologic cancers or other diseases. Belinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving belinostat together with azacitidine may kill more cancer cells.
RATIONALE: Dasatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of dasatinib in treating patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This phase I multicenter feasibility trial is studying the safety and potential efficacy of infusing ex vivo expanded cord blood progenitors with one unmanipulated umbilical cord blood unit for transplantation following conditioning with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation (TBI), and immunosuppression with cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) for patients with hematologic malignancies. Chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, and TBI given before an umbilical cord blood transplant stops the growth of leukemia cells and works to prevent the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The healthy stem cells from the donor's umbilical cord blood help the patient's bone marrow make new red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It may take several weeks for these new blood cells to grow. During that period of time, patients are at increased risk for bleeding and infection. Faster recovery of white blood cells may decrease the number and severity of infections. Studies have shown that counts are more likely to recover more quickly if increased numbers of cord blood cells are given with the transplant. We have developed a way of growing or "expanding" the number of cord blood cells in the lab so that there are more cells available for transplant. We are doing this study to find out whether or not giving these expanded cells along with one unexpanded cord blood unit is safe and if use of expanded cells can decrease the time it takes for white blood cells to recover after transplant. We will study the time it takes for blood counts to recover, which of the two cord blood units makes up the patient's new blood system, and how quickly immune system cells return
This study compares overall survival between patients with acute myeloid leukemia, who are in complete remission following initial treatment with chemotherapy and whose remission is maintained either with a transplantation of stem cells obtained from a sibling or unrelated donor or with standard treatment, which is additional chemotherapy. The study hypothesis is that the group transplanted with stem cells from a donor will have a superior survival compared with patients treated with standard of care.
Cancer patients in clinical trials donate various human samples (e.g., serum, plasma, blood, urine, feces, bile, saliva) for research purposes. The purpose of this study is to conduct further analyses on these existing samples from clinical trials that are being performed outside of, but in collaboration with, the National Cancer Institute.
MULTICENTERS. Uncontrolled and open phase II study. Evaluation of the effectiveness of a treatment associating 5 Azacytidine,Valproic acid ,Retinoic Acid at subjects-reached of syndromes myelodysplasia and acute MYELOID leukaemia Hematological response at 6 months Uncontrolled prospective cohort.
This study is composed of Phase I and Phase II part. Phase I part: The objective is to evaluate the safety of BMS-354825 in subject with chronic phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). Dosage of BMS-354825 will be 50 mg BID, 70 mg BID or 90 mg BID. Phase II part: The objective is to evaluate the efficacy of BMS-354825. dosage will be decided according to the results of Phase I part. Treatment period will be 6 months for subjects with chronic phase CML, and 3 months for subjects with accelerated phase or blast phase CML and Philadelphia Chromosome Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Ph+ALL)
The purpose of this trial is to to determine the safety and effectiveness of therapeutic combination - Clofarabine and Cytarabine for the treatment of AML and MDS.
